Thank you for yet another very nice puzzle! I have to say that I also didn't pay attention to the "numbers not repeating on arrows" constraint and don't think it is necessary.
(The fact that I made a mess by making a typo in r7c3 and had to spend quite some time to figure out what when wrong and re-do a not insubstantial part of the puzzle was entirely my fault and takes nothing away from the joy this puzzle offers.)
